Worx WX261 User Manual

The Worx WX261 is a cordless impact driver designed for tackling tough fastening jobs. Its brushless motor technology and impressive torque output make it a compelling option for DIYers, mechanics, and professionals alike.

Key Features:

• Brushless Motor: The WX261 boasts a brushless motor that delivers several advantages over brushed motors:
  • Increased Power: Brushless motors offer up to 25% more power compared to brushed motors, allowing you to drive larger screws and bolts with ease.
  • Extended Runtime: Brushless motors are more efficient, resulting in up to 50% longer runtime on a single battery charge.
  • Enhanced Durability: Brushless motors have a longer lifespan due to their reduced friction and cooler operating temperatures.
• High Torque: With a maximum torque of 260 Nm, the WX261 can handle driving large lag screws, bolts, and other heavy-duty fasteners into dense materials.
• Compact Design: Despite its power, the WX261 remains relatively compact and lightweight for comfortable handling, especially during extended use.
• 3-Speed Settings: The driver offers three speed settings (0-1,900 RPM, 0-2,400 RPM, and 0-4,000 impacts per minute) for optimal control when driving various screw sizes and materials. This helps prevent damage to delicate materials or stripping of screw threads.
• Impact Mechanism: The impact mechanism provides a hammering action alongside rotation, delivering additional force to break through tough materials or loosen stubborn fasteners.
• LED Light: An integrated LED light illuminates the work area for better visibility, especially in low-light conditions.
• Quick Release Chuck: The ¼-inch quick release chuck allows for fast and easy bit changes, maximizing your productivity.
• Ergonomic Design: The WX261 features a soft-grip handle for improved comfort and reduced user fatigue during prolonged use.

Things to Consider:

• Battery and Charger: The WX261 is often sold as a bare tool (tool only) without a battery and charger. These need to be purchased separately, especially if you don’t already own Worx 20V batteries.
• Weight: While compact, the WX261 can feel slightly heavier than some brushed motor impact drivers due to the brushless motor technology.
• Noise Level: Impact drivers are inherently noisy tools. The WX261 might not be ideal for noise-sensitive environments.

Overall, the Worx WX261 is a powerful and versatile impact driver suitable for a wide range of fastening applications. Its brushless motor technology, high torque output, and three-speed settings make it a great choice for DIYers and professionals who require a reliable tool for tough jobs.
